[2.0.23] Rail support not placed on partial foundation

We are aware of them, but do not have solutions that don't cause other issues. They go here in order not to take space in the main bug thread list.

[2.0.23] Rail support not placed on partial foundation

Post by AdeptX8 »

Hello

In a normal game without mods, it is not always possible to install diagonal rail supports on the oil ocean of Fulgora. It has been experimentally established that if there is a foundation nearby, this can get this behavior.

Thanks for the report. This is an intended simplification of ghosts buildability on ghost tiles. If there is *any* ghost tile under an entity the entity can not be built. It was done this way because the tiles being built may invalidate the existing entity - if it was built first - or may provide support for the entity if it has not been built. But the game has no good way to know in which order things need to happen without a significant performance hit.
If you want to get ahold of me I'm almost always on Discord.
